File Release Notes and Changelog
Notes:
Required by FlightGear-0.7.8
Changes:
New in 0.0.16
* July 12, 2001
* Various changes to the property manager implimentation to better support
dumping out the desired portions of the property tree to file.
* Don't compile the metakit demos by default (causes problems for Irix)'
* Other various tweaks for Irix.
* Added a virtual destructor to XMLVisitor to fix a warning message.
* Check for valid hostname lookup in sg_socket.cxx
* Add a function to return modified julian date without creating an
entire SGTime class. This avoids an extraneous warning about not
being able to find a timezone.
* Created a mailing list for cvs commit messages.
* Fixed a potential array under/over run bug in interpolator.cxx
* Removed all references to SGValue from the property manager. Added
support for an "archive" bit in the property manager to control
which values get written out.
* Added SGCommandState class so that commands can compile and save
copies of their arguments for efficiency if they are called multiple
times.
* Added Brian Baul's "tr" tiled rendering low level support library.
This along with some higher level code in flightgear allows us to do
ultra-hires tiled screen dumps suitable for large format printers.
